30 Stunning Examples of Websites with Beautiful Gradients
February 15th, 2010 Posted in Inspiration
Being able to create transitional effects using two or more colors layered with one another is a vastly utilized technique in web design. Color gradients sometimes can be extremely easy to create, while others can be somewhat difficult and require discipline.
Below we’ve compiled a showcase (to inspire you) that contains various websites with a variety of gradient effects. Some of the effects will be within the background of the site while others will be located within several other elements of design such as the menu, sidebars, footers, and more.

Its ALL about the GRADIENTS!!
Nice list some awesome sites here, couple haven’t seen before. Four 24 looks HOT!! And
there is a great moody feel to Reinvigorate.
Good to see radial gradients being used, not just Linear. Think it gives a real depth to websites.
Good work!

Hell yeah, you managed to find a lot that I’ve never seen before. I’m awe-struck by the 365 days of astronomy site, very original layout without breaking the usability. Thanks for the post!
